The Ravens were going to select Ngakoue in 2016 with pick No. 70, but the Jags beat them to it, and they’ve been associated with him in free-agency rumors. The former Maryland Terp also has ties to the area and would fill the most important offseason need on Baltimore’s roster as they look to win another AFC North title.

Picking at No. 28, the Ravens would be playing copycat to this year’s Super Bowl champions the Kansas City Chiefs, who just last year traded away their late first-round pick for a Pro Bowl pass-rusher in Frank Clark.

Having seen the success that being aggressive for edge-rushers has brought one of their closest rivals, the Ravens would do well to make a move for Ngakoue.
